Primary Election Day Eve: Wyoming State Superintendent and other races

Today is the Day before the Wyoming and Alaskan Primaries and this will be my last post on Wyoming races. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction position is now up for grabs. Fmr. State Superintendent Trent Blankenship resigned last year and moved to take a position in Barrow, Alaska. Republican leaders chose Jim McBride as his replacement and the governor appointed him. Now he is running for a full term in his own right.

The Candidates
(R)Jim McBride, Wyoming State Superintendent of Public Instruction 2005-Present, President of the Air Force Community College 1996-2001, Superintendent of Schools Bennett, Colorado 2003-2005, Technology Administator of Wyoming Department of Education

(D)Michelle Hoffman, Fremont County School District #1 Superintendent of Schools, Fremont School Board Vice Chairwoman

Not to much information as been collected about this race since both candidates are unopposed in their respective primaries. McBride is the clear favorite, but Hoffman has recieved alot of recent support and could still win this race. McBride has yet to campaign and Hoffman is circling the state.

My Prediction
(R)McBride 56%
(D)Hoffman 44%

No Actual Polls conducted.

The other races around the state are most likely going to fall to the G.O.P. The Legisature is 3-1 republican. In Alaska Murkowski just might win his primary,but it is unlikely. More info. will come in the morning as polls open in Wyoming as for now good bye and see you tommorrow.
